Duck Detective: The Secret Salami has now made its way to Android devices, courtesy of Snapbreak and developed by Happy Broccoli Games. Step into the webbed shoes of Eugene McQuacklin, a determined detective who waddles into a local bus company with a mission to solve a perplexing case.
Duck Detective Needs to Find Who Stole the Secret Salami
The adventure begins with you, a duck donning a trench coat, navigating through a rough patch in life. Your next big challenge? Unraveling the mystery of a stolen lunch! What initially seems like a simple case of a missing lunchbox quickly escalates into a deeper investigation involving suspicious alpacas and simmering office rivalries. You'll also dive into the world of passive-aggressive corporate drama.
Duck Detective: The Secret Salami is fully voice-acted, featuring a cast of quirky animal coworkers who are more puzzled by your presence than concerned about their secrets being uncovered. Navigate the bus depot, engage in conversations, gather clues, and jot down notes in your detective journal. Your mission is to piece together the identities and roles of everyone involved, and ultimately, uncover why someone's sandwich sparked such an intense investigation.
A Point-And-Click Adventure That Is Full of Awkward Stares
An intriguing feature of the game is the use of staring as a mechanic. You'll find yourself locking eyes with suspects until they crack under the pressure. And yes, there's even a dedicated button to let out a quack!
Duck Detective: The Secret Salami embraces the style of a neo-noir parody. Picture yourself in a smoky jazz lounge, rain pouring outside, as you narrate your own melancholic thoughts about divorce—as a duck, no less.
For those less thrilled by puzzles, the game offers a Story Mode that automates gameplay. You can dive into the first two levels for free before deciding whether to unlock the full experience.
